To empower the youth in our community with equitable access to social, academic, and career opportunities to thrive

All youth grow up to lead fulfilling lives fueled by their passions, talents, and a love of learning

Curiosity, Respect, Ownership, Ganas, Unity, Equity

Boys & Girls Clubs of the Peninsula (BGCP) proudly stands as the largest expanded learning provider in San Mateo County, dedicated to empowering 7,000 TK-College students across 31 sites from East Palo Alto to Daly City. We believe that talent is equally distributed across Silicon Valley, but opportunity is not, so we are committed to ensuring that socio-economically disadvantaged students have equitable access to the opportunities that will help them thrive in school and beyond.

Students benefit from high-quality academic programs, captivating enrichment activities, and access to critical mental health services. With support from our staff, Board, and broader Team BGCP community, we strive to make our community a great place for all kids to grow up.
